Patient's question:
Doctor, I am 34 years old, female, and recently underwent a gynecological health check-up. The results showed cervical erosion degree 3, which I feel is quite severe. Do you think it's necessary to have surgery for cervical erosion degree 3? Can it be fully recovered?Doctor's answer:
Cervical erosion does not necessarily require surgical treatment. Cervical erosion is not a disease but merely a clinical diagnostic symptom of the cervix. It is primarily caused by the regression of squamous-columnar epithelium in the cervix. Normal adolescent women and pregnant women may also exhibit cervical erosion. If cervical erosion presents with significant contact bleeding or signs of infection, a cervical TCT test can be performed to rule out the possibility of precancerous lesions, followed by targeted treatment. Patients with cervical erosion can take symptomatic medication while using folk remedies as supplementary treatment in daily life. A proper diet should be maintained in daily eating habits to avoid stimulating foods.
